About this study

Official title: Preoperative Magnetic Resonance as an Alternative to Computed Tomography Three-Dimensional Imaging for Characterizing Bone Loss in Shoulder Arthroplasty Candidates With Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis: A Prospective, Blinded, and Controlled Clinical Trial.

This study aims to assess the efficacy of three-dimensional magnetic resonance (MR) compared to three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) imaging. This proposed study is a prospective, unrandomized, single-blinded, self-controlled, and single-armed diagnostic radiological evaluation study.

Being tested
3-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, 3D computed tomography (CT) imaging

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 3-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance (MR) imagingDiagnostic test

    MRI is performed using 3T scanners with a dedicated 16-channel shoulder array coils. The MRI sequences include 3-mm slice thickness and 0.5-mm gap width with a field of view of 14 or 15 cm. There were 6 diagnostic sequences with axial, coronal, and sagittal proton density weighting as well as coronal T2 with frequency selective fat suppression and sagittal T1 images.

  • 3D computed tomography (CT) imagingDiagnostic test

    The CT protocol consists of 3-mm axial images of the glenoid reconstructed into 1-mm sagittal and coronal 2D reconstructions using the following parameters: 120 kV, 280 mA, and pitch of 0.9. The CT data were also used to produce a 3D reconstruction of each glenoid.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Glenoid Version

    All scans from 3D CT and 3D MR imaging were reviewed carefully for the presence of any morphological changes. For the determination of glenoid version, a line was drawn between the anterior and posterior margins of the glenoid. The transverse axis of the scapula was determined by a line drawn from the midpoint of the genoid fossa to the medial end of the image of the scapula; a line drawn perpendicular to this was defined as a line of neutral version. The angle between the line of neutral version and the line connecting the anterior and posterior margins of the glenoid was measured and recorded as the Glenoid Version.

    Measured: 3 Months

  2. Glenoid Inclination

    The 3D MRI glenoid inclination is measured by the two observers with the same method used for CT 3D glenoid inclination measurement following generating a new 2D axial MR images form the 3D MRI model using the three-point method. A line on the supraspinatus fossa and 3 points are drawn: Point S represents the inferior border of the glenoid, point R represents the intersection of the supraspinatus fossa line with the glenoid surface, and point A represents the vertex of the right triangle created by the line of the supraspinatus fossa and a perpendicular line passing through point S; this line (RS) is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. The inclination corresponds to the area in which the glenoid component of RSA is implanted.

    Measured: 3 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and 3D computed tomography (CT) imaging in people with Arthritis and Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Apr 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Glenoid Version (time frame: 3 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Mar 2021.
